      Software Engineer Interview

      21 Sept 2021
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Form3 in Sept 2021

      Interview

      The interview process was pretty straight forward: * Initial screening call * Technical test to write a client library (with no time limit) * A 90 min tripple header interview The tripple header interview was the most interesting part as it was split into 3 30 min interviews with differing interviewers. Part 1 was a quick overview of how the company adds value, an overview of their system's design, and some questions about implementation choices in the coding test. part 2 focused more about how applicable I was to the role, asking some general technology questions such as explaining tcp/ip, explaining http. We talked about the benefits and drawbacks of 100% remote working. To finish we talked about my experience with cloud compluting, IaC, and messaging systems. The final stage was the most surprising. Having to rollplay at debugging an issue. I only realised this the night before so didn't have much time to fret but I thought I would have to read some logs and identify an issue with a section of code - a pretty tall order without domain experience. Luckily it was a much more relaxed affair. The interviewer roleplayed as the system so I viewed the system diagram and asked about system metrics or system logs. We then discussed how I would implement CI/CD on my coding submission and I think we then went onto my questions. Overall it was a very quick and painless process. The interviewers were great, the interview didn't start asking silly algorythm questions or getting bogged down in domain questions. The rollplaying debugging was the most troublesome, I was happy to describe my general checklist but I had to rephrase it into queries to the logs/metrics that I was probably being too general about.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Form3 in Apr 2022

      Interview

      A recruiter from Form3 approached me and we had a brief call. Very friendly and gave me detailed feedback after every interview step. After that there was technical assignment very well structured. You are invited to a Github repo and everything is setup. You just have to follow instructions and commit your implementation. Then there were three technical interviews - Assignment Review - Network interview - On-call interview The first one was the easiest and the interviewer was the friendliest of all. In the second one I had to wait for 10' until eventually the interviewer showed up and started asking me questions about computer science and networks in general. Not very pleasant interview and I would suggest to prepare for an exam like questions. The third was about solving a hypothetical problem with someone from the team. And some behavioral, cultural questions. Not the greatest of experience as the interviewer presented a full system and asks the candidate to debug it in less that 10'. I got a feedback after 3-4 days and had a call with the recruiter giving me a more detailed feedback. Overall, the process was straight forward and the recruiter made it easier. Kind of disappointed by the feedback it felt like the some of the interviewers didn't spend actual time to prepare and didn't respect my time also.
